Abstract
Abdul Haleem Mahouder is a storyteller and visual playwright, and he is one of the founders of the Basra Narrative Workshop and the Silence Film Group. He has many books in which intertextuality was clear, including his book "The Last of the Predictors". The significance of the darkness has a great impact on the same recipient represented in the two stories under study whereby these themes reflect many meanings. The black color, for example, is multi-connotation, and the writer employs it to make the recipient search for this plurality, as well as the white color, which is the opposite of black and other colors. In addition, employing the sense of the eye in exploring danger and confronting come through the psychological dimension and emotional awareness, as it is not intended by the human eye as an organ, but rather the insight that corresponds to the sight and even surpasses it. The writer uses the word "surprise", has a special philosophy and a strong significance in the dialogue. Alienation also has an effective impact on the writer's soul, as there may be self-alienation that affects writer's soul.
